The easy accessibility of the Bible in most of the world's major
languages can obscure a dramatic and sometimes unexpected story. In the
Know How We Got Our Bible Video Study, together with its accompanying
book, Know How We Got Our Bible (co-authored with Charles Hill),
church historian Ryan Reeves traces the history of the Bible from its
beginnings to the present day, highlighting key figures and
demonstrating the reliability of Scripture.
Reeves surveys the writing of the Bible's books (including authorship
and dating), the formation of the Old and New Testaments (including
early transmission and the development of the canon), and Bible
translations from the Latin Vulgate to the current, ongoing work of
translation around the world.
The Know How We Got Our Bible Video Study is designed for personal
study, as well as for use in classrooms, small groups, and Sunday
schools wanting to better understand the overarching story of how the
Bible came to us today.
